Adam Hadwin begins the final round just a stroke off the lead
and trying to become just the fifth Canadian to win the RBC
Canadian Open, a tournament with a storied history as the
third-oldest championship in golf.

In a word, Sean Foley said that Hadwin’s swing is
“pure.” He also said Hadwin is a “very
accomplished” player, despite being just 23 years old.

This is just Hadwin’s third career start on the PGA TOUR,
but he’s not exactly a strange to success. He’s won
twice on the Canadian Tour, including earlier this year, and last
year tied for 37th in this tournament. He also tied for 39th at the
U.S. Open earlier this year.

A win would earn Hadwin the opportunity to become a PGA TOUR
member and give him a two-year exemption on TOUR. A top-10 finish
this week would earn him a spot in next week’s Greenbrier
Classic.
